12:05 pm
the north $31.00 gas pipeline to germany starts in port to via and a new ellen g plant has been built at the site. satellite data collected by a norwegian energy consultancy suggests that the so called flaring of gases taking place here at unusual levels. we observed that russia has been wearing ever since july 11th of mid july, which coincides with the maintenance that occurred or began on or, and shame one. but interestingly, flaring actually continued despite the partial operations being resumed. women are extreme one back in late july. russia has reduced gas exports to europe, leaving it with a large surplus of gas. that could be one explanation for the burn off. experts said at western sanctions could also be to blame. they say flaring might be a sign of russia lacking the proper equipment to operate. the facility bearing does
